Endless regression to the mean

So does the team have a big bonfire with all their smoothie blenders or what?

General_Failure

They're renting a really big blender to put all the other blenders into.

The man. The myth. The legend.

He's getting old. 15 years down the road we will recognize this as when he made his first tentative steps toward Jerry Jones/Al Davis "I gotta win before I die, so let's go crazy" status.

I'll take 15 years of crazy throwing shtein at the wall to see what sticks over 15 years of sticking with the wrong guy again.

Agreed. I want them to win before I die too.

les struck out getting chip at his own house just as glazer tweeted about a convo with him

poor les
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Players apparently weren't told

I have been on the West Coast for a few years now, but am watching the CSN Philly live feed right now.  When did Rube put on 200 pounds?  Christ...
I believe I've passed the age of consciousness and righteous rage
I found that just surviving was a noble fight.
I once believed in causes too,
I had my pointless point of view,
And life went on no matter who was wrong or right.

Either he refused to be stripped of the GM role or refused to make staff changes is my guess.

That would be my guess.

That is what Sal Pal is reporting now....chip said no

Glazer

Just talked to Chip Kelly, disappointed how it ended but knows it's a results-oriented biz. Insists he wants to remain in the NFL, not college. Was pulled into mtg w owner, said he didn't fight the decision.

Rome

So wait... Chip refused to be flexible?

I find that impossible to believe.

Which one was it?

I'm curious if it was a case of getting fired over keeping Billy Davis, or getting fired because Howie put a binder in front of Jeff documenting all of Chip's mistakes and what he would have done instead.

Oops...the stripping of the GM role
